NOT THREATENING.

August 7, 1987

THE HAGUE, NETHERLANDS — NOT THREATENING. Apparently Queen Beatrix's viral meningitis, contracted during a vacation on the French Riviera, is not considered a serious threat to her health. She will be able to carry out her essential duties, the Government Information Service said Thursday, especially since those duties will be seriously curtailed. The announcement made it unlikely that Beatrix's hospitalization Wednesday will necessitate the appointment of her 20-year-old son, Crown Prince Willem Alexander, as temporary regent. The government said the queen will need an extended rest.
